Hello Alex,

I'd say this sounds obvious, but may be deceptively so... If you are taking a pipe capable of 1000 mbit, and rate-limiting it to 311 mbit, the logic used may be:

In the last 1000 msec have there been more than 311mbits? If yes: drop.

Except, we're at the levels of 100 kbit/second in our tests. I did just find CSCdr94172, which might be related. -- Alex Rubenstein, AR97, K2AHR, alex@nac.net, latency, Al Reuben -- -- Net Access Corporation, 800-NET-ME-36, http://www.nac.net --
